About Diomdes
I hold a bachelor's degree in education in languages and I also earned the internationally recognized TESOL teaching certificate. I have over ten years of teaching and tutoring experience and I have taught students from around forty different countries. During the last five years I have been teaching online lessons with three different companies. Most of my students describe me as a caring teacher with great ability to adapt my teaching to meet my students' learning styles.
From a very young age I was able to discover my passion for teaching others, or sharing what I know with others. For example, I remember that since elementary school I always paid careful attention to the teachers in order to later be able to explain the classes that were given in the classroom to my classmates. This became a custom to the point that some teachers often said at the end of their class: "If someone did not understand well, let him meet Diomedes." And for me it was always a pleasure to explain any topic to them.
As time went by, and even before I started studying at the university, I started teaching English at a language institute. When I went to university I decided to study Educational Sciences. Later I went to work as a teacher in the public education system of my country. This was a very enriching experience for me. So much so, that although many years have passed, I still maintain contact with many of those who were my students at that time. It fills me with great satisfaction to see that a good number of them today are English or Spanish teachers like me.
After that I also worked in two of the most prestigious language schools in my country. The last six years I have been full time teaching online. I have taught students from almost every continent and this has also been a very enriching experience. During those six years I have earned a reputation for never improvising anything. For example, I have never had to miss a class due to a technical glitch on my side as I try to anticipate all possible eventualities before they occur. That's why I always have two computers in my office, two internet connections, two cameras, two microphones, and two from all the other equipment so that if one fails, in just a minute or two the other is up and running.
I studied Educational Science at university, and my first teaching job was at a language school in my hometown. Then I started teaching at a high school, and a local university. The thing is that I have been teaching and tutoring for over twenty years now.
I studied Education Science at University and I also earned the internationally recognized teaching certificates TESOL and TEYL.

I have worked with young kids, teenagers, and working professionals.
Learning a language is not something you can do overnight. So one of the most important things for you is being consistent.
I have had a lot of experiences with students who started with me when they did not know how to say a word in the language, and some years later the same student is now capable of having a conversation with me or with someone else. That is something that makes me feel very proud.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
What is my goal in this language? How long am I willing to dedicate to learning the language each week? When would I like to have achieved my goal?

I really like his way of teaching. He is very generous and everything is really clear with the teaching methods he uses. Really very organized with all the technologies that I don't know very well. I recommend it to everyone!
Diomedes possess exceptional patience, skillfully customizing the Spanish class to suit my learning pace and proficiency level. His friendly nature and extensive knowledge in grammar and cultural facts aid me in navigating course material comfortably and helping me to feel at ease. Spanish grammar is very challenging for me, yet Diomedes explains the its structure in a way that makes it easier for me to grasp and learn. Finally, his engaging discussion on various topics within the course materials increases my comprehension of both the language and its cultural context.
Diomedes is a wonderful teacher and I'd highly recommend him.
Our weekly sessions are engaging and fun, and he has been great at gaging my level and helping me to make steady progress with Spanish.
We work through a combination of exercises, reading and conversation. He is a good listener and has a great sense of humor, so I always enjoy our conversations. I've learned a lot about Latin America and its culture as well.
I'd recommend him for Spanish learners of all levels.Professor is patient, knowledgeable, & always available when I need help or send questions via email.
Excellent teacher; made it so easy to learn. I highly recommend him! So personable and easy going while skillful and delightful to converse with.

Diomedes has been teaching my children Spanish for 4 years. He is very personable with them, and I have seen great improvement in their Spanish learning, given they were complete beginners when he started teaching them.
My son speaks impromptu Spanish, and my daughter surprised us all when she ordered her and her grandmother's food, entirely in Spanish, at a Mexican restaurant!
Diomedes speaks perfect English and Spanish, and I know they are learning from a linguistics scholar.
My children always look forward to their weekly, scheduled lessons. He is always punctual with his lesson appointments, and he tries his best to accommodate the learner's desired schedule.
My children say: "He makes it fun while keeping it educational. The lessons are serious, but Diomedes keeps it lighthearted." Their sentiments are that "he's not just our teacher, he genuinely cares about our advancement in speaking Spanish."
My husband and I are very pleased and comfortable with Diomedes teaching our children Spanish. We feel like when they are learning from him, they are, essentially, learning from a family member.
You will not be disappointed having Diomedes as a Spanish or English teacher.
Tee DavisHe is an excellent teacher. Great at explaining complicated concepts, very patient when I don't understand something and great at chatting - we have long conversations which I think have improved my language skills a ton!
my spanish has come so far while working with diomedes. our classes are a nice balance of conversational spanish and grammatical instruction. the tone is laid back but still very informative. i have taken lessons with diomedes for 2 or 3 years now and am very proud of my progress. he is an excellent instructor and also a kind person :)
Hey Diomedes is the best teacher ever! I am learning Spanish with him and every single class is always great! I love his classes more and more Avery day.
Diomedes is my father and he is also my favorite teacher ever. I have had a lot of teachers, but learning with him is always easier for me, not only because he is my father, but also because he always knows how to explain the things a way you can easily understand. He teaches me English twice a week and I am always looking forward to the time of my classes.
